Equity Valuation Assumption Difference, Footnote All valuations of equity awards were estimated using assumptions and methodologies substantially consistent with those used at grant and in accordance with the principles in FASB ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. The fair value of Match Group PSU awards is reflected based upon the probable outcome of the performance conditions associated with such PSU awards as of the valuation date. Consistent with the Company’s policy for determining taxable compensation upon the vesting of RSUs, the value on vesting of RSUs is calculated by multiplying the number of shares acquired on vesting by the closing market price of the Company’s common stock on the last market date immediately preceding the vesting date.

The dollar amount does not reflect the actual amount of compensation earned by or paid to Ms. Ginsberg during the applicable year.The dollar amounts reported in column (f) represent the CAP for Ms. Dubey, as computed in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K. The dollar amounts do not reflect the actual amount of compensation earned by or paid to Ms. Dubey during the applicable year.
As described in more detail in Compensation Discussion and Analysis above, the Company’s executive compensation program reflects a performance-based approach. While the Company utilizes several performance measures to align executive compensation with Company performance, not all of those Company measures are presented in the Pay versus Performance table. Moreover, the Company generally seeks to incentivize long-term performance, and therefore does not specifically align the Company’s performance measures with compensation that is actually paid (as computed in accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act) for a particular year. In accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, the Company is providing the following graphs depicting the relationships between information presented in the Pay versus Performance table. For purposes of the charts below, we have combined the CAP of the PEO serving as of the end of each year (Ms. Dubey in 2020 and 2021 and Mr. Kim in 2022 and 2023) with the CAP of any other PEO that served in that role during each such year (Ms. Ginsberg in 2020 and Ms. Dubey in 2022).
